PREGAME Beating the Bucs

[Merlin]

and if morris doesn't keep his DBs up close so brady can get rid of the ball quick.

I'm not worried about that. I think the Rams DBs can handle the underneath stuff and we shouldn't have to worry about Brady getting long looks at the defense. Our DL is playing that well.

Really the best chance for the Bucs is grinding out a good run game. If they can't do that I don't think they will have a strong day on offense.

This game really is gonna come down to the Rams offense. OL needs to handle business and 9 needs to put up another disciplined outing. If those two things happen their talent should overrun Tampa's defense.

I tend to be confident as a fan I realize. But this is a good matchup for the Rams. This is a game they can make a statement.

Interesting. Not sure any of them are coming back this week or anything, but nice to see there is the potential for some extra hands in place if we move forward.

Getting SJD back in that rotation would be significant. Our DL is already dominating. Getting SJD back would be nice for say the 9ers and rotating in run stuffers.

I presume Jensen will go. Wirfs probably won't though because if he does Floyd/Miller will eat him.

Kurt always does a great job.

That Cover 4 carry the Rams ran last time... Seems like that would be dangerous with our safeties in their current condition. Have to think the Rams adjust that.

One thing the Bucs are going to be surprised by is how good our interior has gotten in working together. If you watch some of the stunts they were running in that early season range there was a lot of guys clipping each other and not getting the desired effects. Rams are far better now in their DL coordination and Gaines is a fucking handful on the nose.

Biggest start of Noteboom's career right here. Let's see what you got 70!

Hmmm. Is it just me or is the concussion giving them an excuse to sit Rapp without as much fanfare? He didn't look that banged up to me.... (I'm not a Dr, I only play one on TV)

I will say that Scott played a good game. That hit he had to force the incompletion was all effort and anticipation, coming as far as he did to make the play. If you hesitate a second there that is a completion.

And Burgess I didn't notice flailing around so that was good. Seemed like the safeties played pretty well in the wildcard game. Question is whether they can keep that up. Arians is a wily bastard he's gonna test them.

Not buying that, Rapp gets a lot of shit, only some warranted. He’s a vet now and one of their better options, 4 picks and usually a good tackler. If he was able to go he would be out there.

Great breakdown. BTW Kurt, you will always be a RAM.

Observation: For those of you who still hate the new Ram head logo.....i've noticed that at some point this season they replaced it(talking about the home midfield logo) with the LA logo.

I don't think they're rotating it. I'm pretty sure it's been replaced. I noticed it a few weeks ago. If true, i'm hoping the team knows just how terrible it is and have plans to redesign it soon.

Still waiting for them to bring back those opening day end zone designs they had against Chicago.

This is false as it’s been there as recently as the niner game.

But but the guys at Nike did a ton of research and knew what the citizens of LA wanted. They poured their blood, sweat, and tears into the logo.

These marketing gurus have families at home. You just can't take their major accomplishments and tear them down like that! [/Bluefont]
